Eight hundred and thirty-four, it is indeed a troubled time
Although Zhu Linglu is also unfamiliar with life in this Liaozhai world, how to go to Wutai Mountain, there is no sense of direction.
But this will naturally pass through many towns along the way, and Zhuling Road can fly for a while, walk for a while, and ask all the way, it should be no problem.
Therefore, Zhu Linglu flew away for almost three days, and finally came to the destination of Wutai Mountain in Shanxi.
However, Zhu Linglu's journey from Tai'an Mansion in Shandong Province to Wutai Mountain in Shanxi Province can be regarded as crossing the northern part of this great Qianguo in the Liaozhai world, and it can be regarded as having seen a lot of the actual situation of the Daqianguo in the local area today.
At present, the local situation in this great Qianguo country is really a bit of a dire situation.
Zhu Linglu felt that the situation in this chatting world, as shown in the plot of the "A Chinese Ghost Story" movie, was a completely chaotic situation.
Above the court, because the so-called protector of the country, Pudu Cihang, controlled the regime, almost all the court officials of the Great Qianguo became his puppets, and even the emperor was at his mercy.
When Zhu Linglu checked the information in advance, he also saw an argument that Pudu Cihang, the flying centipede essence, was probably stealing the momentum of the Great Qianguo's national fortune to meet his cultivation needs.
It is said that the body of this Purdue Cihang's flying centipede is also a descendant of the dragon species, so in order to improve the dragon qi in the demon body, he wants to steal the dragon vein qi of the Great Qianguo to make up for his own dragon qi.
Therefore, he deliberately disrupted the court power of the Great Qianguo, and the more chaotic the Great Qianguo, the more national fortune he can steal, and the more the national fortune is stolen, the more chaotic the country will be.
Anyway, regardless of whether this argument is true or not, the country is indeed completely chaotic from top to bottom.
Many loyal ministers and good generals of the Great Qianguo were worried about the situation and tried to put things right, but on the contrary, they were suppressed, and they either retreated in discouragement or were falsely accused of being thieves. Caught in jail.
Yan Chixia in the plot of "A Chinese Ghost Story" was originally the chief catcher in the capital, but because she felt that the traitor was in charge and her skills were useless, she was angry and lived in seclusion in Lanruo Temple.
And the so-called wise man Zhuge Wolong in the plot can only live in seclusion in prison, regardless of the outside world.
This passage said by Zhuge Wolong is still quite interesting, "The ancestors have no vision, let me pursue knowledge." Let me write books and pass them on. Who knows, when I write a travelogue, they say that I leak state secrets, write history, say that I use the past to satirize the present, annotate the art of war, and say that I instigated rebellion, write stories about gods and monsters, and say that I lead people to superstition. Finally, rewrite the biographies of celebrities. As a result, this celebrity was wrecked and condemned as a rebel, and I was sentenced to life imprisonment with him...... alas. Life is a prison! ”
(Every time Heaven sees this paragraph, he also has a feeling of hehehehe!) )
Anyway, based on what Zhu Linglu has seen and heard on the road in the past three days, this big Qianguo is really chaotic.
What is the situation in the central court, Zhu Linglu may not know yet. After all, I haven't really seen it yet, but Zhu Linglu has really seen the situation in the place.
Now the Great Qianguo has control over the localities. It's almost completely decentralized.
The so-called upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked.
Since the court of the Great Qianguo is chaotic and unorganized, it is natural that corrupt officials and corrupt officials are rampant in the localities, and the result is that the people are not able to make a living, and bandits are everywhere.
And the court is unable to catch bandits, relying on those quick arrests and errands, they can't take care of it at all, and in the end they can only rely on rewards.
As a result, many Jianghu people who rely on catching thieves to receive rewards have a place to use.
However, due to the lack of official laws and regulations, many Jianghu people mostly relied on their strength to act in the local area under the pretext of catching thieves and receiving rewards.
These Jianghu people are often robbed by bandits at one time, and catch bandits at the same time to receive rewards, anyway, they all use the swords in their hands to reason.
As a result, the lives of ordinary people are worthless, and good citizens can only be displaced and become dispossessed, and in the wilderness outside many towns, it is common to see a skeleton with an uncollected corpse.
The flesh and blood of these skeletons have long been cheap beasts such as wolves, and most of these beasts that have eaten human flesh have bloody eyes, like half-demons and half-beasts.
This is also the reason why ghost stories happen everywhere in the world of Liaozhai, because there are so many dead people, and there will be wandering ghosts everywhere.
In fact, there is not much background in the story, but the actual situation that Zhu Linglu saw with his own eyes is like this.
Only in a few places does it seem that there are local forces governing on their own, and they can be regarded as maintaining some stability.
And Zhu Linglu encountered lonely souls and wild ghosts on the road, so he also unceremoniously killed and harvested soul points, these lonely souls and wild ghosts do not have underworld ghost talismans, Zhu Linglu only needs to disperse their ghost bodies, and naturally they can use horcruxes to collect their souls.
It's just that the souls of these lonely souls and wild ghosts are incomplete, and most of them can only provide ten or nine soul points, which is better than nothing.
However, after Zhu Ling Road arrived near Wutai Mountain, he found that the place on this side was stable.
The local government and the squires of the towns below may also have some involvement with the monasteries in Wutai Mountain, and their reputation in the local area is also good, so the people here are relatively stable.
In addition, the Wutai mountain area is huge, covering an area of thousands of miles, the mountains are long, the peaks are dense, and there are many towns and villages in the mountains, which can be regarded as living with a lot of people.
And on Wutai Mountain, there are also large and small temples densely, different temples have their own fields and temple properties, and they are also rented to some people for planting and breeding, and some people are also captive here.
In this way, the Wutai Mountains are also like a paradise, and in the chaos of this great Qianguo, it can be regarded as a stable place.
When Zhu Linglu was far away in the air, he had already seen many peaks on Wutai Mountain, and there was golden light and divine light shining among the mountains, which was not like an ordinary place.
However, Zhu Linglu didn't fly directly to Wutai Mountain, but he just fell down the mountain, sensed the mountain with his spiritual power, and found that most of the golden places were where some temples in the mountains were located.
So Zhu Linglu first found a temple with the brightest golden light and walked over, looking like a scholar who traveled into the mountains.
Walking along the mountain road of Wutai Mountain, I went all the way up, but I arrived at a peak in Wutai Mountain, where there is a Qingwa Mountain Temple.
Zhu Linglu entered the temple courtyard along the mountain gate, this temple occupies a lot of land, and there are several temples in it to worship different gods and Buddhas.
At this time, Zhu Linglu found that the golden light and divine light flashing above the temple were mostly coming out of the temple hall, to be precise, it should be released by the gods and Buddhas enshrined in the temple, forming a flood of divine light in the sky above the temple.
Zhu Linglu immediately swept his spiritual power through the temple, but he didn't find any special monks, and there were no so-called Arhat golden bodies and other high-ranking monks and Zen masters...... (To be continued.) )
